January 2021 Newsletter
Dear Neighbors,
We would like to start out by thanking all of our 2020 members! A strong participation in CAPE from the neighborhood is essential to our success. The Board is working hard to build a stronger sense of community and togetherness in Pollard Estates. We currently have a few vacancies on our Board, and we would love fresh faces and ideas to join our cause. If you are interested in serving, please reach out to us via email at the address listed above.
In 2019, we were able to facilitate the installation of license plate reader cameras at the entrances to our neighborhoods. All license plate information is transmitted to BRPD automatically for review of suspect vehicles. This security measure is an addition to our regular off-duty police patrols.
With the success of CAPE sponsored social events in 2019, we started 2020 with a variety of scheduled events catering to all of our residents. While some events were unable to be hosted because of the pandemic, we were able host some safe events for our neighbors to participate in, such as the Art and Wine Walks as well as our Halloween events and Christmas Caroling. We are currently planning our schedule of events for 2021, so feel free to reach out with any ideas you may have and check our website and Facebook page regularly for updates.
Also in 2020, we updated our neighborhood directory, including contact information for each residence. A digital version is now available on our website for neighbors to access at their convenience. Please let us know via email if you wish to make any changes to the details included in the directory. The password for access can be provided on request.
As a CAPE member, your dues have been utilized for private security patrols by off-duty Baton Rouge Police officers, insurance coverage, maintenance of the common areas and CAPE sponsored events. The amount being assessed for the period of January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2021, is One Hundred Dollars and Zero Cents ($100.00), which is indicated on your invoice. Invoices will be delivered via email to the address on file for each property and can be paid when received, online on our website or via check to the address listed below. If any of your contact information has changed, visit our website to update your details or contact us below.
Regardless of whether you own or lease a property, we invite and encourage all neighbors to be active in CAPE and to help us make this neighborhood a better place to reside. If you have any questions or concerns or feel that you have received this notice in error, please feel free to contact us below.
Thank you for your support of CAPE and also for your commitment to keeping our neighborhood the best kept secret in Baton Rouge! If you should need anything from us, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
